Techniques of Value Analysis and Engineering - Lawrence D. Miles - Hardcover - 2d ed Book

This is a wonderful book to have of you are taking the NCEES proctored Mechanical Engineering PE Exam. Just about every topic you need for the exam is covered in simple, but effective manners. The references in the appendices are great. Steam tables for common materials, fatigue tables, material properties, statistics constant tables, etc. This book and a stack of notes from review classes were all I brought to the PE exam. I never used the notes and passed the exam the first time. Make sure to get the practice problem book that accompanies this book. The problems are well thought out and the solutions are very detailed. I use this book or loan it to other engineers in my group at work all the time.
